Keymer, Thomas, ed. Prose Fiction in English from the Origins of Print to 1750
Bibliographic record
Abstract
comptes rendus 235 that describes both the prose and drama set in the region, and that gives Twelfth Night new meaning.The key research question, "how did Shakespeare draw on the wealth of information about Illyria that complemented his picture of early modern Europe?" was largely answered in the previous chapters.Chapters 3 and 4 provide the strongest argument so far that Shakespeare's Adriatic plays and the non-Shakespearean Adriatic prose romance belong both to English literature but also to the early modern heritage of Illyria narrated in European accounts across time.The argument about Illyria being the conduit for the flow of Christian ideas from the eastern Mediterranean to the West puts The Comedy of Errors, Twelfth Night, and Cymbeline at the centre of this cultural transmission.The Coda is a reminder of Illyria's borderland existence as a crucial element in defining European relationships with the world beyond.In this theoretically sophisticated chapter, in which current cultural and critical theories intersect with the movement of people from beyond the historical Illyrian space(s) into Europe, Puljcan Juric implicitly claims urgency for her book, and makes us aware that Illyria mattered to Shakespeare just as it has continued to matter up to the present moment.The variety and coverage of the historical sources and data change the paradigm of early modern Mediterranean studies in the English context; many are original in the sense that they are brought into the conversation with English sources and English historiography for the first time.There, too, lies the originality and freshness of this elegantly written book.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
